Jeff sorry to hear about your Mom but glad to hear she's recovering. I just lost mine 3 weeks ago at the young age of 97 and am glad for the time I spent with her instead of under the hood.
Mike This. Glad your Mom is ok.

Well as I said before, getting the car ready for Norwalk, would either be a miracle, or epic failure. It's no where near done. I'm getting close to having the car in primer, and have put some steady hours in lately.

YOu're making good progress on that, buddy! Maybe your car will be on the dragstrip before mine.

Shot some primer on the doors and bumpers last night. Not real happy with the drivers door. Might have to redo some of it.

I have found that cars never keep to a schedule. Whether at work, or at home. Just keep chipping away, 1 day at a time. I'm hoping to get my chassis certified within the next month. Still far from done, and it won't do me any good except piece of mind, knowing that I built it right. If I'm lucky (not a good track record so far! 3 years in the making.) maybe I have a shot at Spring for my 1 year project. Your project is looking great. Family always comes first, glad Mom is feeling better. Keep at it.

Another big task done. On to getting the engine compartment ready for primer now.

Don't give up blocking the body until it's right. It'll just bug you later. The speed your moving along at is fantastic. WAY faster than what it took me. Doug It's taken 12 years to get this far. Sgcuda, I got the J bar idea way back from dvw, when he was building his car. Liked the way it looked, so went with it.
